Excellent Stay at The Vendue

Cleaning staff, valets, and front desk personnel were most kind, friendly and extremely hospitable. Tour of lobby's art exhibit was led by a woman (whose name escapes me) who arranged the exhibit and answered my many questions about each painting/ art piece and the artist who creeated it. The night manager, Gregory, was especially friendly and helpful to me on the night I arrived. We chatted at length.

arrived in Charleston bright and early thanks to an earlier-than-expected flight, which meant our room wasn’t ready… for over six hours. Whoops! Totally on us. But wow—the Vendue staff turned that potential hiccup into the beginning of a truly magical stay. They happily took our bags and handed us a complimentary umbrella so we could explore the city without a hitch (which came in handy when the skies opened up later in the day). Just as we were starting to feel soggy and winding down at a bar nearby, we got the BEST call—our room was ready early and we’d been upgraded! From that moment on, it was pure bliss. The service was above and beyond. From complimentary breakfast and morning mimosas to daily afternoon wine tastings, every detail made us feel spoiled in the best way. And walking into the lobby late at night to find warm cookies and milk waiting? That sealed the deal. I’ve been to Charleston many times and had actually told myself this would be my last trip back—but now I’m already planning a return just to stay at The Vendue again. It was that good. 100000% recommend.

The Best Charleston has to offer

This is the MOST AMAZING PLACE EVER! We are forever hooked, since visiting Charleston and staying at The Vendue. The staff is beyond amazing, making you feel as though you're the only person there. The Revival restaurant is the best place I've ever eaten. This is my favorite place ever, and we will return!

I had a wonderful stay at The Vendue! From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making me feel right at home. The hotel itself is full of charm—blending historic character with modern comfort in such a unique way. My room was beautifully decorated, spotless, and very comfortable, with thoughtful touches that made the stay extra special. One of the highlights was the rooftop bar, which offered incredible views and a fun atmosphere in the evenings. The location is perfect as well—right in the heart of Charleston, making it easy to walk to restaurants, shops, and the waterfront. Overall, The Vendue provided the perfect mix of hospitality, comfort, and style. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Charleston!

We checked in without issues. Greeted with welcome cocktail and free room upgrade. On our first night our toilet was broken and spraying water from the back at 10pm. We sat in the lobby while maintenance fixed it. After that we were woken up all night with a faulty HVAC that caused the AC to make an intermittent clicking sound. Needless to say we did not sleep well. In the morning we let the front desk lady know. She offered to upgrade and change the room, a complimentary dinner and a call to Expedia to get a refund on the first night as she agreed this was a huge disruption. We happily agreed that this was fair compensation. That evening when a change of staff happened the next staff member said that they would just honor the room change and a $50 credit as well as 2 free drinks. We spent quite some time discussing this issue as i explained this was not what was promised. To make a long story short we were given a new room and dinner for 2. I would not recommend Vendue and I have told people what happened. When something like a 100% disruption like this happens there should be more done than room upgrade and dinner. The original offer should have been offered as we ended up spending the next day napping to make up for the lost sleep which disrupted our vacation.

Refreshing stay

Took my wife on a surprise stay here for her birthday. Fantastic place to impress your spouse. Very friendly with great amenities, premiere location to really do anything of interest. Even though it was in a busy area of town it still felt very private. Highly recommend and would personally stay there again and again.

You can’t beat location. It was perfect to walk around and explore downtown. They had bikes we were able to use as well. But we were surprised to see how outdated some parts of the hotel wells and our room especially. We were upgraded for a small fee but the room was dirty and for that price point we were disappointed.
